Background information[]
The sea shockshell split from its ancestor, the shockshell, and moved out of Ichthy River and to the coastlines of Glicker. It is much like its ancestor, except it has adapted to saltwater. Like its ancestor, it has a calcium shell which protects its soft insides. They use an electric charge to attract food particles as well as to deter predators. In the spring they lay hundreds of eggs into the water.
